definition

A chronic inflammatory disease characterized by shiny, flat-topped, usually flesh-coloured micropapules no larger than the head of a pin. Lesions are localized in the early stages, found chiefly on the lower abdomen, penis, and inner surface of the thighs. Distribution may become generalized as the disease progresses.
